ReL Subs: High Level or Low Level connection

Good morning,

I have Rel S510 x2 in my system

Currently using Hi Level connection to my Pass Labs Int-60.

Had a conversation with a learned individual who feels very strongly that I should be using Low Level instead. Just Get the sun out of where the speakers are connected to the Amp

Any thoughts out there?

Thank you

I have a pair of T/i subs in my two channel system. I have both connections laid out depending on amp. Yes, the RCA's are a long run (purchased new from SVS..excellent people to deal with) but IMO based on my system and ears I prefer the low level connection. I feel it gives you more "head room" to make adjustments on the rear and allows the subs to do what they're suppose to do.

Appreciate all the input

Sounds like a HiFi debate

Equal numbers on both sides of the issue

I just compared using Hi level vs low level

At a given amp level and the same music the high level is 1-2 db higher than when using low level using my Pass Labs INT-60

High level sounds a bit better to my ears.

I'm a little disappointed as I was hoping to sell these baseline blues
